LORD L.'I,I",ENnOROUGII. We are sorry to info-m 1' )11c, that yester day evening, a; six o'clock, this vene; tole Noble man departed this life, at 11;s hots,t in st. James's square. A more t juil l fe never adorned the legal Tribunals of his Country. He was a sound Scholar, possessed firsf-rate abilities, and Wa,, profoundly skilled in the knowledge of that Pro fession of which he Was so bright an ornament. As an Advocate, he was zealous, diligent, and firm, and did not stoop to those arts, in order to serve a Client by cajoling a Jary, which are too oiten practised, but urged the fair Claims of Jus tice with determined fervour.—As a proof that he was not inclined to a despotic exercise of the authority belonging to the high station which he occupied, we nosy adduce the case of Mr. HONE, %rho was suffered to take such liberties with the Court as never would have been tolerated by m.)st of his Lordship's predecessors. We are not blaming M r.HoNE tor the zeal and energy ofaelf- vindication, but we may fairly commend the Chief Justice for the candour and temper with which he permitted the defendant to advocate his own cause. Lord ELLENnonovoit had been declining in health some time,- and from the account of his alarm- lug state, which we received yesterday from a high Law Authority, we expected to hear that his sufferings would terminate i❑ the course of the day. FOR THE SUN. INSOLVENT ACT. MR. EDITOR,—Since you did me the hononr of inserting in your valuable columns a few simple nnadoined observatiofis tinder the 'ignature of MERCAToR, a host of Correspondents have been amusing► themselves, and endeavouring to amuse the Public, by writing professsedty on this subject; • bait having read numerous letters from an OLD BARRISTER, MS SON, SCRUTATOR, Mr. M. is- DoCTUS, AGENT FOR SELF AND CO., &C. it really does -appear to me, that though th,y have elabo rarely treated o►► a vatie:y of subjects, the real merits or demerits of the Insolvent Act have en grossed but a small portion of their sage cogita tions. The chief point they seem to contend is, that this law, whether salutary and wholesome or otherwise, is ado:ned or disgraced by the practice of those who are termed AGENTS ;. men never re cognised even by County Courts, of -Refinesls, Pie-Powder, or any other of the most inferior de scription. The allowing such men to act as Soli citors, Attornies, or Agents, appears to me an ab surdity 100 glaring and too monstrous *for a n y one to countenance or support with the smallest hope of making converts. But, Sir, I take it the real question, the only one worth considering, is, whether the Act itself is good or bad in its principle. The OLn BARRISTER has evinced extensive reading an , : diligent application in .41e - history he has favoured us with, of imprisonment for civil tit hr; and as a large proportion of the Politic not have the means of referring to more antient and enlightened authors, who have treated on the sau►e subject ►,early in similar terms, they :re much inch:b:ed to him and your. Paper, for that which they might never have seen by °dick means. Next comes a Chip of the Old Block, and he talks Latin which others have talked before., but which I fear a very small proportion of those who are chiefly interested in the Insolvent Act will even be able to comprehend, any more than they will be able to discover on which side of tl , e qu scion this legitimate Son of the Old Barrister is desirous of writing. But, Sir, it seems that there has been plenty of attempts to write itn this mo mentous subject, erlootot, more than enough ; it is now time that soniething should be doing: 1 will thereon', with roir permission, address a few words to the Merchants and Traders of this Kingdom, anti advise that Meetings be held in every ti'ard or Parish of the Metropolis ; that Delegates be chosen at such Meetings, to form a General Meeting, so that the sense of the 'fratling Interest be brought into one focus, and that a Petition be presented to Parliament, as the majority of such General Meeting shall agree upon, either for a continuance of this measure or its total abandonment. This, Sir, will be the fair way of collecting public opittion ; and that opinion so collected will doubtless have due weight in the p‘oper place. MERCATOR. UNIVERSI i Y INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD, DEC. 12.

TO THE EDIToft OF THE SUN. tietiiietta-street, Dec. 12, 1818 rt,.--ShockeA as I am to be cot - kindled to &Article myself on Public atten'6On, and totally ineonipetent as I knoif my self to he to engage iti ally thing like controversy with Mr. Ste phen Kenthle, 1 consider myself to he imperiously called upon to notice his letter which appeared in your Paper of this day, in which lam very uncerenionionsly accused of having ut tered a deliberate 'Wifehood. I shall not so far forget myself as to retort the accusation upfitv'Mr. Stephen Kemble ; I will rather, in charity, believe that he most have forgotten the ciicamstanets of my short correspondence with him, when he ventures to impute to me the utterance of an notrfil h. I will also believe that Mr. Stephen fiemble *as ignorant of the nature of my former engagement at Drury-Lane Theatre, when the subjoined letters passed between us, or he would have known that the salary I received was fully - adequate t o my utmost wishes ; bat that salary was by no means the Most essential consideration with me. In My former engagement I had etpressly stipulated for an absence of six weeks to fulfil an engageMent in Ireland : and the Sub-Committee were dully 'apprised of my existing engagement at the English opera House, which precluded the possibility of my accept ing one which required, as a prelhniqary Condition, that my services should be confined to Drury-Lane Theatre during the whole of the Season. The offer, therefore, was no offer at all-it was an unwor thy artifice to arm the Sub-Committee with a defensive an swer, in case any inquiry should be made by those who con descend to consider my humble talents as of sonic conse quence to a Theatre, Besides this, it will be observed, that Mr. S. Kembte's Letter to me is dated August sth, about one month may before the usual period 'of opening the Theatre The Sub-Committee (front whom I had received, during the whole past season, the most unprovoked insults, with a de tail of which i 4 is unnecessary to trouble the public), were perfectly conscious that I had received my regular discharge at the end of the season, together with all others not under articles ; and they must have been well aware, that I had nut suffered more than half the summer to elapse, without mak ing such arrangements for country engagements, as might occupy a portion of my future time, and which I was com pelled to form by the natural conclusion that they had no in tention to retain my services. The following offer, through Mr. Stephen Kemple, therefore, coupled with restrictions, which they knew it to b, impossible for me to comply with,i was a mere mockery, and as such I considered it. [Copy, No. I.] " Theafre Royal, Drum/-lane, /fu g% 5, It IS. " Man , m,-1 have it in command from the Gentlemen of the Sul) Committee of Drury-lane Theatre, to offer you fur the next season the terms you had last season; only I am de sired to observe, that they require your talents to be con fined to this conct rti solely during the whole of the s e as o n, he privilege of writing orders, I am desired to inform you, is discontinued. I am, Madam, your obedient Servant. (Signed) " S. KMBLE." ICoPY , No. 2.] St a,--Pressure of business and some illness hare prevented my earlier reply to your letter. From what I now hear of the .state of Drury-Lane Theatre, I presume it will not he re qui-ite to trouble either you or mvself with an answer which would necessarily be at considerable length. It will be sudi dent to say at present, that the total neglect of the Sub- Committee has driven me to form engagements elsewhere, independent of prior ones, which they are folly aware of, and which would render it impossible for me to have accepted the terms of your proposal, "I have the honour to he, Sir, " Your obedient Servant, "F. M. KELLY." It•must also he noticed, that at the time I received this of. fer, such as it was, an injunction . from the Court of Chan eery bad restrained the Sub-Committee, as I understood, from entering into any engagement whatever; and it %ill be seen, bfrni' answer to Mr. Ker»hie, that I declined going into particulars on that account 6 ' for the present," but when the injunction was rentrved, there was tint the slightest in clination manifested by him to renew the negociation. The public have now nay case before them ; they will best decide whether I am not justified in asserting that the Sill). Committee 6 6 hare not chosen to retain in!, servi ces ," : odd, they might have retained had they thought proper, as in the former season, fur sorb periods as their own contemptuous neglect had lett at toy disposal; and also how far Mr. S. Kemble is justified in the charge of falsehood which he has not scrupled to bring against me. I cannot conclude without oh sery trig that Mr. S. Kemble, in his anxiety to prove nie guilty of an untruth in one respect, has totally over - loot:et) the main grievance of which I have to complain. The fact td my being deprived of a liberal engagement at Covent Garden Theatre, by the perverted operation of au injurious ',lmpart, remains Uncontradicted : whatever may he Mr. S. Keirible's hopes, and wishes on the subject. the stubborn truth exists in all its force, that I am the victim ofl a cruel conspiracy-- ; that by the unjust interference of the Sulr-Committee, I am deprived of the fruits of my professional labours—and that - . any compelled to draw ni . in my limited and hardly-earned sariNgs for the means of present subsistence. I have the honour to he, sir. Your most obedient Servaht, F. M. KELLY. As we wish to do justice 'to both parties, we insert this day Miss KELLY'S Letter in answer to that from Mr. STEPURN KRMBLa, Which ap peared in our Paper of Saturday,- written by that. Gentleman, by desire of the SUB-COMMITTEE of Drury-Lane Theatre. We repeat onr perfect con fidence in the open candour and manly firmness of Mr. KEMELCS character, and are persuaded that l►e acted to the best of his judgment, according to the information which he had received ; Ent it seems evident that he was not bipprized of the engagements into which Miss KELLY had en tered, and which precluded her ft►om accept : . ing such an engagement at Drury• Lane Thea tre as regnired her to devote the whole of her exertions to that Theatre. if the SUB COMMITTER were themselves fully apprized of those engagements, the condition which they proposed of confining her efforts to their Theatre, rendered their offer, indeed, as she says, a kind of " mockery." But th-e main question between the Public and the Theatres is' this—shall an excellent Actress, and a very amiable young woman, who is most deservedly one of the chief favourites of the Public, he deprived of an opportmiity of exerting her talents for the support of herself and her family, by any compact het ween the two Theatres, and shall the -Public by such compai,t be deprived of the plea%ure which those talents are so emi nently qualifit d to afford ?

The annals of fox-hunting, we think : seldom present any thing equal to the following detail of a chase which took place by the hounds of J. MYTTION, Esq. of ))Aston, in this county: — A numerous and highly-re-pecteble field of sportsmen turned out at Twemlow Moor, on the 19th nlr. where they soon started a fox, and, after a run of , two hours, they pursued hint into the town of Wlaitchurch. In the Green Eno he wus met by several persons, who drove hitreback over the To'wn Pool Meadow, from 'whence he took refuge in the garden of John Knight, Es.q. Here the hounds met with n check, and the sports men, not being able to get into the garden, were obliged to ride up the White Lion-yard, thtongle the town, into Doddington. Sly Reyitard wits, however, soon driven from his hiding-Mace by the huntsmen, and he took into the garden of Miss E. Langford, and finding the back-door 4 the house open, entered the ball, ran up stairs, and got into a cupboard, whither he was pursued and taken. The consternoioo of L , :who is an elderly maiden Lady, may be more easily conceived than described, in having a fox and a whole pack of hounds in her house, and about 50 red coats assailing the house without, head e ,l by the gallant Lord Hill. Here, however, we ate compelled to say, the Noble General's skill did not so effectually serve hint as in the Peninsida campaigns, for he could not possibly force the citadel in front, hut was obliged to move by a circuitous route into the rear, where a tree egress having been left for Miss Lang ford's tin expected visitors, the fox and hounds, his Lordship and comrades had an easy entrance. But it impossible to describe the feelings of Miss Langford, what can be said of those of her antiquated maid, Betty Nunnerly, who happened to be comiog down( stairs, to a red night cap, at the same time the fox and dogs were ascending ! She was, how ever, compensated for her fright by a handsome present from J. Mytton, Esq. Among the sports men, Sir John (-IM, Bart. was conspicuous. This f` Father of Heroes,'' although between 70 and 80 years of age, rides with as much spirit as any of the young otv,s, and is generally in at the death. The worthy Baronet was .otended by three of his sous, and the hrush was taken by a son of the 'late highly-respected Col. Hill, and grandson ro Sir John. Loud LaughbOrough and several Gentlemen of distinction were also pre. scot.— (Shrewsbury Paper.) MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCH. SaturrlAy the Proprietor of the Old White Horse Cellar an.
